Yup. Stopped at the pump, did the usual thing and fill up whilst still sat on the bike. After I finished I paddled the bike forward a bit so that the car behind could get to the pump. This left me in between the two pumps. As I pushed with the right foot to lean the bike left onto the side stand, my foot slipped on the floor, due to the water, petrol, diesel mix on the floor. Bike tipped over and ended up leaning on the plastic bins that they have there.
Bike was unmarked apart from the brake lever snapping clean off. I guess that's what happens when you buy cheap replica levers ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Just seen this. Sorry to hear of the mishap, glad it was just a lever. I'm always reporting diesel spills on garage forecourts to the staff (who generally can't be arsed to do anything about it). At least you didn't mark your paintwork
